I feel this kind of ownership of Ron in a weird way. Although I loved seeing the play, it was a real thrill seeing someone else take that body over." Rupert, who welcomed his first child Wednesday with Georgia Groome in May 2020, added: "But yeah, if the others did, I think yeah." It comes as Rupert and Emma Watson both recently admitted they nearly quit Harry Potter after shooting to fame at a young age.
